Inspired by Alicia Silverstone's "The Kind Diet" and Michael Pollan's "In Defense of Food," we want to experience the vegan lifestyle to improve our health, boycott animal suffering, and reduce our carbon footprint.

Gimme the green

Last Sunday I was reunited with an old pal : the Mountain View Farmers Market.  I bought mushrooms, an onion, cauliflower, broccoli, serrano peppers, and kale for $4.75.  Amazing.
During the week after a long work day, I decided that some simple roasted veggies were in order.  Plus, I had been inspired to make kale chips from a Google chef.  They're so easy to make!  It's just largely chopped pieces of kale, EVOO and salt.  Then, to give one of the batches a cheesy flavor, I sprinkled nutritional yeast on top.  Cooked at 400 for 20 minutes was too long.  Do it for much less.  (I still ate the crispy burnt pieces though!)  The veggies in the other cookie sheet are just EVOO, salt & pepper.  mmmm!  They've provided me 3 meals for under $5.  score!
